A« mall matter ol the second claws.
The editorial .soliloquies on tin
adjournment of the Georgia leuis
lature this year presents an entire
]y new phase. Don’t say any
more that Georgia editors are not
resourceful.
Supt. White and his assistants
are still busy grading the papers
of the recent teacher’s exatnina
tion. From what the Tribune
could learn quite a number of the
large class of applicants for license
missed their spelling lesson. That
was too bad.
A “straw bfillot” last week
shows that Hon. Clifford Walker
is the popular candidate for gover
nor in Nashville and most probab
ly in Berrien county. Hardwick’s
unbridled tongue and pen continue
to drive voters from his standard.
He is between the upper and
nether stone of loquacity, abusing
people who do not agree with and
approve him, and it is forging his
defeat slowly but most assuredly.
Because old men and women
get nervous, childish, pettish, mad,
think and say bad things is no
reason why the younger set should
lose their heads, say and do things
to contrary them. Successful
leaders in any line of human activi
ty do not come from that class of
material. Better for you to have
“that charity that endureth all
things, hopetb all things," So why
worry about wbat folks may say
about you.
Official reports from the tobacco
markets of South Georgia this sea
son demonstrates that it is a good
crop. The two warehouses at
Nashville at the close of business
August 11 had made sale of about
300,000 pounds from which the
farmers realized more than £KI,OOO.
Equally as good reports come from
Blackshear, Douglas and Tiftou.
The secret of success in growing
tobacco for a mouey crop is not too
large an acreage for your labor to
manipulate properly.
It may have been the proper
thing to select Savannah as the
State Port of Entry, but the lan
guage used stamps the commission
as ruffians who have no regard for
ethics or good breeding. The
Tribune does not know who wrote
Brunswick’s reply, but it is cer
tainly a classic and in fine spirit.
If the engineer did not make a
survey of the port of Brunswick,
and it could not be done in three
days, then his report against her
was unfair and unjust.
The Georgia legislature has ad
journed and the members gone to
their respective homes wiser if
not better men. The only legisla
tion for Atkinson’ county is an
amendment to the Act creating a
Board of Commissions of Roads
and Revenues, which permits the
three militia districts of the coun
ty to elect their own member of
this Board. The electors can vote
only for the candidates in their
respective districts, and a candi
date to be eligible must be a free
holder.
Some South Georgia editors,
seeing trade drifting away from
their towns for the lack of invita
tions coming from the merchants
themselves through the medium
of their papers, have extended
such invitations themselves aud
agrees to see that the traders find
a store that will supply their
wants There are many ways to
drive away trade from a town and
there is none more effective than
indifference on the part of the
merchants themselves. We are
liviug iu a time when people don’t
have to go to auy certain town or
plaee to do their trading, aud they
prefer to go to that place and mer
chant who extends them an iuvita
tion and courteous treatment.

Everybody cordially invited to at
tend.
Mr. George Gillis was the guest

George!

We are glad to announce that
I la, the little daughter of Mr. Jeff
Wall is at home from the hospital.
She is recovering from the opera
tion she underwent and it is hoped
she will continue to improve until
entirely well.
Mr. !•’, M, Cowart, candidate for
Commissioner from this section,
requests the announcement be
made that he is qualified to hold
the office if elected, even under
the new law. He owus a tract of
land near Kirkland in fee simple
and, therefore, he is a “freeholder.”
Now let the discussion about this
.matter cease. There is no reason
for disaffection among his friends
in the district.
[Editor's Note.] —Some weeks
ago the Tribune received t wo news
letters from Mi. Zion. The editor
was away and the young men in
the office, finding they did not
have space for both, consolidated
bot h into one —excluding repetition
of items —but signed only one
"nom de plume.” The consolida
tion of news-letters from the same
place are frequently made, when
space is scarce, and not with the
intention of hurting the feelings of
either of the writers. Again,
sometimes it is the case where two
or more letters come from the
same community, both or all will
contain the same item of news; and.
in that event, it is used in only
one of the letters. The editor
hopes this explanation will allay
all feeling that may have arisen
over the matter of consolidating
those two letters.]
